SUMMARY:Prayer Day
DESCRIPTION:🙏 Prayer Day: A Campus-Wide Day of Worship & Reflection \nAt the heart of Columbia International University is a commitment to spiritual formation. Prayer Days are dedicated moments each semester when we pause academic routines\, cancel classes\, and come together – students\, faculty\, staff\, alumni\, and friends – to focus on one of our core values. Through worship\, teaching\, prayer\, and small group reflection\, we seek renewal\, unity\, and a deeper connection with God and one another. Event schedule for the day will be communicated to students’ emails within two weeks of the Prayer Day. \nDuring this time\, we require that all undergraduate students participate\, though all students are welcome. Student workers may not work until 3 pm on Prayer Days.
